We study ultrametric germs in one variable having an irrationally indifferent fixed point at the origin with a prescribed multiplier. We show that for many values of the multiplier, the cycles in the unit disk of the corresponding monic quadratic polynomial are optimal in the following sense: They minimize the distance to the origin among cycles of the same minimal period of normalized germs having an irrationally indifferent fixed point at the origin with the same multiplier. We also give examples of multipliers for which the corresponding quadratic polynomial does not have optimal cycles. In those cases we exhibit a higher degree polynomial such that all of its cycles are optimal. The proof of these results reveals a connection between the geometric location of periodic points of ultrametric power series and the lower ramification numbers of wildly ramified field automorphisms. We also give an extension of Sens theorem on wildly ramified field automorphisms, and a characterization of minimally ramified power series in terms of the iterative residue.

We study the dynamics of a class of endomorphisms of A^N which restricts, when N = 1, to the class of unicritical polynomials. Over the complex numbers, we obtain lower bounds on the sum of Lyapunov exponents, and a statement which generalizes the compactness of the Mandelbrot set. Over the algebraic numbers, we obtain estimates on the critical height, and over general algebraically closed fields we obtain some rigidity results for post-critically finite morphisms of this form.
We continue the study in [21] of the linearizability near an indif- ferent fixed point of a power series f, defined over a field of prime characteristic p. It is known since the work of Herman and Yoccoz [13] in 1981 that Siegels linearization theorem [27] is true also for non- Archimedean fields. However, they also showed that the condition in Siegels theorem is usually not satisfied over fields of prime character- istic. Indeed, as proven in [21], there exist power series f such that the associated conjugacy function diverges. We prove that if the degrees of the monomials of a power series f are divisible by p, then f is analyt- ically linearizable. We find a lower (sometimes the best) bound of the size of the corresponding linearization disc. In the cases where we find the exact size of the linearization disc, we show, using the Weierstrass degree of the conjugacy, that f has an indifferent periodic point on the boundary. We also give a class of polynomials containing a monomial of degree prime to p, such that the conjugacy diverges.
This article is concerned with the dynamics of glacial cycles observed in the geological record of the Pleistocene Epoch. It focuses on a conceptual model proposed by Maasch and Saltzman [J. Geophys. Res.,95, D2 (1990), pp. 1955-1963], which is based on physical arguments and emphasizes the role of atmospheric CO2 in the generation and persistence of periodic orbits (limit cycles). The model consists of three ordinary differential equations with four parameters for the anomalies of the total global ice mass, the atmospheric CO2 concentration, and the volume of the North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). In this article, it is shown that a simplified two-dimensional symmetric version displays many of the essential features of the full model, including equilibrium states, limit cycles, their basic bifurcations, and a Bogdanov-Takens point that serves as an organizing center for the local and global dynamics. Also, symmetry breaking splits the Bogdanov-Takens point into two, with different local dynamics in their neighborhoods.
The correspondence principle in physics between quantum mechanics and classical mechanics suggests deep relations between spectral and geometric entities of Riemannian manifolds. We survey---in a way intended to be accessible to a wide audience of mathematicians---a mathematically rigorous instance of such a relation that emerged in recent years, showing a dynamical interpretation of certain Laplace eigenfunctions of hyperbolic surfaces.
Inspired by the work of Zagier, we study geometrically the probability measures $m_y$ with support on the closed horocycles of the unit tangent bundle $M=text{PSL}(2,mathbb{R})/text{PSL}(2,mathbb{Z})$ of the modular orbifold $text{PSL}(2,mathbb Z)$. In fact, the canonical projection $mathfrak{p}:Mtomathbb{H}/text{PSL}(2,mathbb Z)$ it is actually a Seifert fibration over the orbifold with two especial circle fibers corresponding to the two conical points of the modular orbifold. Zagier proved that $m_y$ converges to normalized Haar measure $m_o$ of $M$ as $yto0$: for every smooth function $f:Mto mathbb R$ with compact support $m_y(f)=m_0(f)+o(y^frac12)$ as $yto0$. He also shows that $m_y(f)=m_0(f)+o(y^{frac34-epsilon})$ for all $epsilon>0$ and smooth function $f$ with compact support in $M$ if and only if the Riemann hypothesis is true. In this paper we show that the exponent $frac12$ is optimal if $f$ is the characteristic function of certain open sets in $M$. This of course does not imply that the Riemann hypothesis is false. It is required the differentiability of the functions in the theorem.
